Dont think any of us are arguing, but the job is to get up, spend £100miliion i couldnt give a rats, the squad will change if we get get back to the PL. we look no further ahead, it will then take millions to stay there, we all know that, if we get lucky and the aim is met at the end of the season it will all be looked at by the club , the thing is now we have a manager who will be in control of it all.

what's he going to do with all the plodders he's spent a lot of money on, who will be on decent wages and contracts

If I was him I'd go mind. In theory once they get things sorted on the pitch west ham should be well set for years due to getting such a cracking deal on the ground. It's just asking for a decent manager to come in and build them into a side capable of challenging the top 4. Much more chance of achieving that (and the money that comes with it) there than he'd have at Newcastle who will no doubt retain their current transfer policy.

Although he knows he'd be found out there.
 
How did he fail at Chelsea? He was an interim manager and won the UEFA Cup - some failure that.

He wasn't retained after winning said cup though.
Can you detail what he spent at Valencia and who he inherited before winning two leagues and the UEFA Cup? Prior to that, he had one season at Tenerife in which he got them promoted. Ditto the season before that at Extramadura. So success there to, and I would guess without a load of money spent, but given you know the 'blueprint' of his career so well, you can no doubt contradict me.

He's also won trophies at Liverpool (where he spent), Inter, Chelsea and Napoli.

To quote a previous poster on this thread, clearly a "charlatan".

What? The Valencia team he inherited that had just previously been Champions League runners-up TWICE and La Liga Champions?

Extramadura where he got them promoted and then relegated?

Tenerife where he inherited players such as Mista & Luis Garcia?

A Liverpool team where he spent big and inherited a squad, of which Houllier did much of the groundwork.

An Inter team which he inherited from Mourinho, that had just won the Champions league and Serie A.

Inherited the best Napoli team since Maradona's time there? Aye canny.

There's a pattern emerging.....

Im guessing we sell them.we might even make a profit, we are decent at that.how about yous?
 
They get more fans than Newcastle. Therefore using mag logic they're bigger.
So the previous 100+ years don't count? ;)

West Ham to me were always a family club and I never considered them a big club or even a potentially big club.

a few handshakes, a big stadium, a peppercorn rent might, or might not change this.:cool:
 
Bigging him up already so they can worship him staying and as proof of how HUGE they are. Wonder they haven't threw his hat in for the England job, or have they?

Ripping the Championship apart with their multimillion pound team. Proof if ever there was he is a World Class Manager. Hasn't allowed the weight of the famous no.9 shirt to be too much for his striker either, which must have been a job in itself.
This paper has a history of doing it. They release a worrying story knowing the outcome already and then sucker the mags into believing it.
See every player that's ever signed for them, as they're about to sign suddenly we are interested and they steal them from under our noses :lol: every time
 
He was very close to getting West Ham job before Billic, any links around for this story ?

Just in the colonical.

It is understood that the had actually all-but agreed to take over at the east-London club back in the summer of 2015, before Bilic was appointed, only for the Spaniard’s boyhood team Real Madrid to make an 11th-hour offer for his services.
